Mansudae Assembly Hall, Parliament building in Chung-guyok, North Korea.

The Mansudae Assembly Hall is the seat of North Korea's Supreme People's Assembly, next to the Korean Revolution Museum in Pyongyang. Its pale grey stone facade has rows of tall narrow windows between plain pilasters, with carved geometric panels above and a lower wing to the right. Inside, the main meeting hall covers 4,300 square metres and seats 2,000 members.

The hall was completed in October 1984, as recorded in its structured data, and stands on ground that held the Pyongyang Women's Prison before the Korean War. It was built as the seat of the Supreme People's Assembly, next to the Korean Revolution Museum, and its design follows Soviet models with Korean elements. It has since been renamed the Pyongyang Assembly Hall.

The building combines Soviet architectural influences with Korean elements. Its name, Mansudae, refers to the Mansudae hill area of Pyongyang where it stands. The paved ground in front of the facade has served as a site for public gatherings and musical performances, including a concert on 9 September 2022 marking the 74th Day of the Foundation of the Republic, broadcast live on state television.

The building has a translation system capable of handling ten languages simultaneously, which helps during international meetings. Visitors should expect formal conditions and strict security procedures when entering.

The site was a women's prison before the Korean War, and the hall now stands next to the Korean Revolution Museum. Its front grounds host public gatherings and musical performances; a concert marking the 74th Day of the Foundation of the Republic was held there on 9 September 2022 and broadcast live on state television.
